Had today off - of course it rained most of the day.
Navy Jack - Happy anniversary.
RockIsland - I was the initial diagnosis back in November when her back first flared up. The doctor reccomended shots. I grabbed the Old Overholt, she asked me where the .22 was....
Charline - kids will keep you busy. You still have the high school years to look forward to - sports, church groups, choir, scouts, plays, etc. Wonderful times though.
I picked up my 2010 Lionel catalogs yesterday. Unlike the 2009 volume 2, I found something that screamed 'BUY ME' in the 2010 catalog - the jet powered RDC. Stopped by the LHS and put one on order today. That thing looks like E.J. Potter might have had a hand in putting it together.
Picked up the new tub today. Tomorrow's chore will be framing in the surround.
All for now.
HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY NAVYJACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR WIFE NEEDS A LAYOUT FOR THIS SPECIAL OCCASION, DON'T YOU THINK?
JACK
IF IT WON'T COME LOOSE BY TAPPING ON IT, DON'T TRY TO FORCE IT. USE A BIGGER HAMMER.
Hey Ole Timer, has your bride been talking to mine, or is it just something they all have? Ended up missing the service tonight as I was busy with a patient till too late. We ended up going out for Italian food when I got home and picked up the family.
Laz, I sent you an email on something that I thought you may have an interest. Hope you got it.
Will check in tomorrow. Hope everyone has a blessed night.

Navy Jack, Happy Anniversay! What a blessing to have that and Easter at the same time. We celebrated our 50th last year and it was on Thanksgiving but like Easter, Thanksgiving does not always fall on the same date.
Got to find some stuff to put in Easter baskets for the kids tomorrow. Maybe I'll get some goodies too. I've already cheated with a giant dark chocolate bar from Hershey from the grocery shopping yesterday. They say dark chocolate is good for your heart (if you don't get diabetes first).
Went to good Friday services at noon today. Just laying low this afternoon.
Later,

Good afternoon all,

Did go to Good Friday services this afternoon. WIll wash some vehicles today. I had bran muffins on the dining car for breakfast this morning. TBIL anytime. I hope everyone has a good day.
Keep on training,

Sturgeon-PhishThe Holy Thursday services were awsome last night
Jim, our Holy Thursday service was awsome as well. The best part was seeing our deacon who recently had surgery for cancer of the esophagas participate in the service. He is making a strong recovery and many prayers have been answered.
Have a blessed Good Friday all,
Jim,
Thanks. I didn't think it was the same car when I picked it up.
SJ,
Even if the PS2 that you are using now develops a disc read error, don't throw it out. They are very easy and inexpensive to fix. I wanted to get a PS3, but the fact that it can't play PS2 games caused me to put a new laser into my older PS2 and set it aside until my current one dies. Need to get some spare lasers asap.
I had a Controls test this morning, and I think it went well. I've got to take an online Anthropology test later today, but I might work on the layout first.
May everyone have a blessed Good Friday and a Happy Easter ... God Bless you all ... especially all the Dear little children ....
Morning all!
Cloudy and starting to rain. Storms later today - may be heavy T-Storms. Temps in the 70s next several days and weather for the weekend is supposed to be very nice.
Easy day today. Many at the office are off so that keeps the activity down
Getting back to working from home more and now my wife and I can revive our weekly Friday lunch.
Hope everyone has a good TGIF!
Regards, Roy
Woke up with the sun shining and going up to 80. I just hope it stays like this. We have been up and down all week. One dya it's 40's and today it's 80's. Allergies also have been acting up.
Anyway coming along on the new layout real nice. Started the scrap yard this week. Gonna try to work on more trees today before I go to work. It's nice out, it's friday so it's gonna be busy at work.
Morning all. It is a beautiful day out there and heading to the 80s again. Kids are off school for the next week and we have a special Lord's Supper service tonight at the sports park. Easter service on Sunday. Wife and kids are heading out to our friend's house to do the colored egg/egg hunt thing while I head to work. Typically, our kids do several egg hunt games each Easter.
Fife, Some Dude was up your way....you are right, really does get around.
Can hardly believe York is around the corner....and I can't go WAAAAAAHHHH! Hope everyone that does go does us some honor and spends lots of dead presidents. And plenty of material for SPF
Hope everyone has a blessed day and Easter weekend.
God Bless,Dennis
Good Morning All
Yep we got nice weather too, going into the low 80s today.
We have a church service at noon with a lunch after, guess that will be my meal for the day. Nice chat with some of the guys last nite. I ordered a new PS2 from Amazon, want to get one before they disappear. PS3 will not play the older games I do not want to give up. I will use the new one through the warrenty period and then put the old one back on. Have a great day.....S.J.
Aloha all. Boy. I'm having the biggest allergy attack of my life this week. Ugh. Hard to sleep and sleep-walking through the day. The gorgeous weather here must be making something come out. Funny I didn't have any allergies growing up. Could be worse of course. I'm reflecting on it as a small reminder of Good Friday suffering.
Bob, clever solution using the old radio parts on the 'scope. Hope the fix lasts through the cycle.Jack, teen enjoyed Boston so much. He did mention New Englanders talk funny though. Looks like Lake Lawn Lodge hasn't changed since you were married.

Was over on the 'York' thread and Ole Timer posed a question so I figured I respond over here to see if he can keep up!
Brent .... ya I can keep up ... if not I'll borrow my buddy's power chair .... LOL . He told me to take it to train shows/meets and hook a lil wagon on the back .... with 28 lbs. of extra ... you may have a hard time keeping up . That remark about keeping up was'nt an asinine one against this old disabled vet was it ?
Dougdagrump ... did you get that link I PMed you for the tmcc ?
Hi GUYZ,

Mornin' boys. Foggy & 50 here in the Mid-Atlantic this AM.
dwiemer - "some dude" lent his car to the robbery suspect from WV (of all places) that I locked up last night... Cat gets around.
Good Morning from Blueberryhill....
It is a clear 50 degrees, Sun is coming up. Going up to an actual 85 today, ( for real ). Sunshine. It's gonna get hot.
Today is an easy day. I have a few things to do this morning and then, I will take it easy. I have some reading to do and a few things to work on, in the train room. I will spend some time outside, appreciating the nice weather.
Dining car is here with Cheerios for breakfast.
Buckeye.......... TGIF
Y'all have a great Friday.
